Wildfire Mitigation FAQ
-
How can utility companies mitigate wildfire risks?
Utility companies can mitigate wildfire risks by proactively conducting thorough, cyclical inspections of their infrastructure. This involves assessing overgrown vegetation and equipment health. Overheating, faulty or aged equipment, as well as unkept vegetation near transmission lines can increase the risks of starting a wildfire. -
What is a wildfire mitigation plan?
A wildfire mitigation plan is a strategy aimed at minimizing the risk, impact, and damage of wildfires. Wildfire mitigation plans consist of proactive measures like vegetation management, community preparedness, and infrastructure preparedness.
